About SHAPE
SHAPE Online & Fitness was established on the NSW Central Coast back in 2013 by owner and trainer, Katie McDonald.
It began as KT Personal Training for Women and was born out of a desire to help people achieve their goals – not just physically but in their whole life.
Katie believes that when people start to exercise and feel good within themselves, it spreads to their everyday life. Watching how happy they become is truly amazing and her favourite part of her job!

I have been on this journey with support every step of the way since I started in Sept 22 at 105.5kg to reaching my goal this year at 68kg. I'm so proud of how far I have come and the knowledge of food that I have gained along the way.
